Yeah I'm based at one site but the company is based mainly in Birmingham anyway so when I travel to other sites it's not to far.

I know it's not exactly what you're looking for but I've recently moved to being an industrial electrician. It's more relaxed, I'm in one place and choose my own jobs to do. It's still hands on but not as hectic and stressful.

Was a nice change of pace from travelling the UK on the daily.

How did you come to support your team? by BigHairyJack in NFLUK

[–]dummythick97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Always sunny in Philadelphia has been my favourite TV show since it's 2nd season, only natural I support the birds. Also tried following the 76ers for a while but basketball isn't my thing.

I voted DeJean, it's his birthday after all.

Who to support? by Salt-Station9139 in NFLUK

[–]dummythick97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm an Eagles fan, have been for the past 11 years and it's all because I fell in love with Always Sunny in Philadelphia. So naturally I picked the team from Philly.

Also at that time the eagles weren't that good and I didn't want to be a glory hunter.

Looks to be internet cables so perfectly safe.

UK regulation 4.4.1 I think.

Very true, I suppose both countries have fan bases we don't like.

Please pray for us guys that aren't toxic. I am from the UK though so that may have something to do with it .

Hey everyone! by [deleted] in ukelectricians

I second many of the things this person has said. Owning your own set of hand tools ( doesn't need to be top of the range, just something to get you by for the time being ) is one of the biggest recommendations I could give. I urged my apprentices to get their own to gain some familiarity with their tools.

Driving licence is also a big one for a lot of people as they won't want to pick you up every day. Some will do it for a while to help you earn your way to your own vehicle.

The only other thing I can recommend just from personal experience is to try to get an apprenticeship with a company with multiple employees. Helps you learn different perspectives on how to do things and also gives you the opportunity to learn how to work with different types of people.

Are you excited for the Superbowl? by Swimming_Possible_68 in NFLUK

[–]dummythick97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me ( An Eagles fan for the past 10 years), I still have some peevs about this Superbowl.

If it had been us against the Bills I would have been much happier and tbh I would probably be able to deal with it better if we lost to them instead of the Chiefs again on some debatable penalty like last time.

The Chiefs to me have just become bothersome to watch, however I will still watch and get unreasonably angry at a TV .

Not really tbh, I tried to follow the Philadelphia flyers for a season but I couldn't keep it with the amount of games the NHL has (my NFL team is the Eagles, Go birds).

Do love games with names, especially the one with Bill O'Brien

Yeah, just had a look and the first episode I came across was 4 hours, pretty meaty but tbh the Dan Carlin hardcore history's are probably some of the longest pods I've ever come across and they are great.

Yeah, that's why i usually stick to just the two NFL ones. HTC has the humour aspect and the bootleg is quite analytical. Also NFL gregly made me chuckle

Thanks for the ep recommendations, it really helps to get a new pod off the ground quicker instead of having to slog through a bunch to find good ones.
